These observations have been made solely on the free versions of each of these survey providers. It's possible that some of the concerns addressed are fixed/modified in the pay-for versions. ---- Features deemed important to a survey service include: - Analysis tools - The ability to insert images into the survey - Conditional branching based on responses provided by the user We are currently considering multiple online surveys options including: - www.surveymonkey.com - Clean interface - seems to be unable to use image uploads for multiple choice questions - ensures one cannot vote from the same computer - analysis seems pretty standard, in terms of options - www.polldaddy.com - Very easy interface - seems to cut out some of the control from the admin interface - also unable to use images for multiple choice questions - also ensures 'vote stuffing' doesn't happen (no voting from the same computer multiple times) - conditional branching capable, but seemingly unable to make sure users only see a question if answer the initial question a different way (eg. user will eventually get to all the questions, regardless of the branching) - I might be mistaken, there may be a way to change this -JacobThebaultSpieker - analysis seems pretty standard in terms of options - www.limeservice.com - full featured free account - interface provides substantially more control, seemingly - icon driven interface, kind of awkward to use - control over conditional branching is much better - statistics/analysis seems more fine-grained Please provide any feedback you may have as to other online survey options, or your experiences with any of the services being considered. -- Jacob Thebault Spieker - 12 Nov 2008
